Two by Two: Thornato with Kongo Elektro and "Deux a Deux"

Today's upbeat song, Deux a Deux, is by Thornato and features Kongo Elektro. Thornato is the stage name of Swedish/American producer Thor Partridge, who has produced sought-after remixes and artists in countries as various as India (for Bollywood), South Africa, Colombia and Kenya. He also toured extensively with Oakland-based Beats Antique. He is joined on Deux a Deux by Kongo Elektro, a duo consisting of American/South African musician Daniel Eppel and Congolese/South African musician Mapumba Cilombo, who bill themselves as reinventing African dance music through electronic soukous and live looping. You can hear Deux a Deux on Thornato's 2017 album Bennu, released by Wonderwheel Recordings.
